  • Partnership Financial Credit Union Donates $10,000 and Food to the Greater Chicago Food Depository

    The credit union philosophy is “People Helping People.” We extend this philosophy to include helping our communities at large, which includes doing charity work and donating to worthy causes.”

    — Mary Ann Pusateri, PFCU’s CEO.

    MORTON GROVE, IL, UNITED STATES, January 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — On Monday, Jan. 12, 2025, Morton Grove-based Partnership Financial Credit Union (PFCU) presented a $10,000 check to the Greater Chicago Food Depository (GCFD). In November of 2025, during the government shutdown, the credit union also ran a successful food drive for the GCFD, with support from generous PFCU members.

    PFCU typically runs a food drive each year from mid-November through the first week of December. However, when the government shutdown began on Oct. 1st, it was uncertain whether the approximately two million people who receive SNAP and WIC benefits would receive them in November. In addition, some government employees were not being paid, and food pantries were facing a supply crisis. Because of this, a PFCU team member suggested that the company run its food drive earlier this year.

    As a result, PFCU hosted a food drive from October 27th through November 21st at its five locations. In addition to dropping off food, PFCU also gave its members the option to donate cash, which would get sent to the GCFD.

    Thanks to the generosity of its members, PFCU collected $5,375 in donations. PFCU matched funds, almost dollar-to-dollar, with a total donation of $10,000 going to the GCFD.

    The credit union philosophy is “People Helping People.” According to PFCU, this mantra goes beyond just helping its members with their finances. “We extend this philosophy to include helping our communities at large, which includes doing charity work and donating to worthy causes,” said Mary Ann Pusateri, PFCU’s CEO.

    PFCU is a member-owned financial institution open to the community, with offices in Barrington, Des Plaines, Evanston, Franklin Park, Morton Grove, and River Grove at Triton College. PFCU was formed in 2014 when four Chicago-area credit unions merged. With origins dating back to 1941, PFCU remains dedicated to maintaining close, personal relationships with members while delivering the best possible financial products and services. Along with CEO Mary Ann Pusateri’s long tenure of over thirty-eight years, PFCU has many team members with 20-plus years of service. Learn more about PFCU at www.mypfcu.org.

  • U.S. Department of Energy to Provide HALEU for Hermes Demonstration Reactor

    Allocated HALEU to support Hermes reactor startup and operation in Oak Ridge

    DC, UNITED STATES, January 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Kairos Power has finalized a contract with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) to receive High-Assay Low-Enriched Uranium (HALEU), sourced from DOE material, for the startup and operation of the company’s Hermes Low-Power Demonstration Reactor (Hermes 1), currently under construction in Oak Ridge, Tenn.

    Kairos Power was conditionally selected by DOE to receive HALEU earlier this year under the agency’s HALEU Availability Program and has successfully completed negotiations to secure the HALEU required for the Hermes 1 program. The company will use the material to produce HALEU TRISO fuel pebbles for Hermes 1 in partnership with Los Alamos National Laboratory, using manufacturing processes developed and optimized in Kairos Power labs. The Hermes 1 reactor and fuel fabrication program will provide crucial learning to enable the success of Kairos Power’s future commercial fleet.

    “We are pleased to secure the HALEU we need to demonstrate our technology with Hermes 1,” said Edward Blandford, Kairos Power Chief Technology Officer and co-founder. “The U.S. Department of Energy has been a vital partner on the Hermes project, with its ongoing risk reduction investment through the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program. The allocation of HALEU will enable continued progress on Kairos Power’s path to delivering affordable advanced reactors at scale.”

    “DOE’s support allows us to keep up our momentum, as we drive toward a shared goal of unlocking advanced nuclear energy’s potential and accelerating U.S. reactor deployment,” said Mike Laufer, Kairos Power Chief Executive Officer and co-founder. “We appreciate DOE’s continued commitment to our iterative development process, helping us secure a reliable source of HALEU to meet our near-term fuel needs.”

    “The Department of Energy’s HALEU allocation program is helping U.S. nuclear reactor developers meet their near-term fuel needs,” said acting Deputy Assistant Secretary for Nuclear Fuel Cycle Florence Knauf. “We’re excited to see Kairos Power finalize their contract to receive HALEU and look forward to seeing them move forward with the fabrication of TRISO fuel for Hermes 1.”

    Kairos Power broke ground at the Hermes 1 site in July 2024 and began nuclear safety-related construction in May 2025. Hermes 1 is the first non-light-water reactor to be approved for construction by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission.

    DOE is investing up to $303 million in the project through the Advanced Reactor Demonstration Program (ARDP) under a performance-based milestone contract. Kairos Power met two ARDP milestones in the last year, with the installation of reactor vessels for two non-nuclear hardware demonstrations that will test the integration of reactor systems, help establish the supply chain, and generate operating experience to inform the Hermes reactor series.

    Through Kairos Power’s iterative development approach, the learning from Hermes 1 will directly enable the commercial-scale Hermes 2 Demonstration Plant and help de-risk technology, licensing, manufacturing, and construction for Kairos Power’s commercial fleet.


    About Kairos Power

  • Experts Advise Early Intervention for Minor Roof Leaks to Prevent Escalation

    Minor roof leaks might not look like much at first, but they can cause real damage if ignored.

    ST. PETERSBURG, FL, UNITED STATES, January 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Minor roof leaks might not look like much at first, but they can cause real damage if ignored. Water spreads fast and often reaches areas you can’t see. It can ruin insulation, rot wood, and create problems with electrical wiring.

    Roofers across Florida are seeing more cases where delays lead to major repairs. Mitchell Roofing Company has responded to many homes where a small leak turned into structural damage or mold. What could have been a simple fix ends up costing more time and money.

    Roofing experts recommend acting quickly at the first sign of a leak. Early repairs help protect the home and prevent larger issues from building up. Small leaks don’t stay small for long.

    Leaks Travel Farther Than Expected

    Small leaks often move in ways people don’t expect. Water can travel across beams and find its way into ceilings or behind walls. The first visible sign might show up far from where the leak started.

    Delaying repairs gives water more time to spread. Hidden damage grows worse the longer it’s ignored. Mitchell Roofing Company has seen cases where a quick fix could have saved entire sections of a home.

    Insulation Breaks Down Fast

    Roofing professionals report that attic insulation is one of the first areas affected by hidden leaks. Even minor water exposure can reduce its ability to regulate indoor temperature. Once saturated, insulation loses effectiveness and begins to retain moisture rather than block it.

    This shift often results in increased energy use across the home. HVAC systems must work harder to maintain stable temperatures, leading to higher utility costs.

    Beyond comfort, damp insulation can impact indoor air quality. Moisture buildup may contribute to stale odors and the presence of airborne allergens.

    Addressing leaks early helps prevent these secondary issues and keeps attic spaces functioning as intended.

    Damage Begins Before You See It

    A ceiling stain usually appears long after the damage has begun. Water often reaches the roof’s underlayment or decking first, weakening the structure from the inside. Mitchell Roofing Company has inspected homes where early damage stayed hidden for weeks.

    Moisture can collect between layers and move through areas no one checks. What looks like a minor issue may already be a sign of a larger repair. Acting early helps avoid major problems that cost more and take longer to fix.

    Damage Begins Before You See It

    A ceiling stain usually appears long after the damage has begun. Water often reaches the roof’s underlayment or decking first, weakening the structure from the inside. Mitchell Roofing Company has inspected homes where early damage stayed hidden for weeks.

    Moisture can collect between layers and move through areas no one checks. What looks like a minor issue may already be a sign of a larger repair. Acting early helps avoid major problems that cost more and take longer to fix.

    Wiring Is Put At Risk

    Roofing specialists in Pinellas Park, FL, warn that unchecked leaks may reach parts of a home’s electrical system. Moisture around wiring or fixtures can create conditions for shorts or corrosion. Mitchell Roofing Company has identified multiple instances in which delayed action increased the risk of fire or power failure.

    Unlike surface damage, electrical issues can develop quietly. Water near ceiling-mounted lights or outlets often goes unnoticed until signs like flickering or tripped breakers appear. These symptoms tend to show up after the problem has already spread.

    Addressing leaks early helps reduce the chance of electrical damage. Fast repairs give homeowners a better chance to avoid outages, expensive fixes, or safety concerns. Roof and electrical systems work together, and both are affected when water gets in.

    Ceiling Stains Aren’t The Starting Point

    Ceiling stains often show up after water has already moved through hidden layers. Discoloration on drywall or walls can mean the leak has been active longer than expected. Framing behind the surface may already be soft or weakened.

    Many Pinellas Park homeowners treat stains as a cosmetic issue and wait too long. Damage can spread into insulation, wood supports, and nearby materials during that delay. Mitchell Roofing Company recommends scheduling an inspection as soon as staining appears.

    Flashing Fails Without Warning

    Roof flashing is designed to seal edges around chimneys, vents, and skylights, but it often wears out without any clear signs. Shifting materials or age-related cracks can create narrow openings that allow water to enter. These points of failure rarely draw attention until damage begins to show indoors.

    Industry professionals report that flashing-related leaks have become a growing concern during seasonal inspections. Small failures around joints or seams can cause widespread water movement beneath the surface. Once the issue spreads, repairs become more complex and costly.

    Timely inspections remain the best way to prevent flashing problems. Catching minor cracks early helps keep water out and avoids expensive structural damage. Roofing experts continue to emphasize the importance of early detection to prevent long-term issues.

    Storm Debris Can Trigger Slow Leaks

    After strong storms, most of the damage left behind is easy to spot—downed limbs, scattered debris, broken fences. What’s harder to catch is the damage that starts on the roof. Small branches or debris can strike shingles with enough force to cause cracks, but those weak points often go unnoticed until water begins to work its way in.

    Roof inspectors are seeing more cases where slow leaks started after a storm but weren’t found until weeks later. Those delays give moisture time to spread through the roof’s layers before anything appears indoors. A fast check after severe weather helps spot these issues early, before they grow into widespread damage.

    Don’t Let Delays Cost You More in Roof Leak Repairs

    Small leaks often turn into big problems when they’re ignored. Acting early protects your Pinellas Park home, your wallet, and your peace of mind. To schedule an inspection or learn more, visit Mitchell Roofing Company at mitchellroofingcompanyllc.com.

  • Georgia Southern University & Redpath Launch Salesforce-Powered Platform to Strengthen Corporate and Industry Engagement

    Georgia Southern & Redpath launch a Salesforce platform giving a unified view of industry partnerships across research, education, and workforce initiatives

    MINNEAPOLIS, MN, UNITED STATES, January 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Georgia Southern University and Redpath Consulting Group announced the implementation of a Salesforce-based platform designed to support the University’s corporate and industry engagement strategy and strengthen coordination across research, innovation, education, and workforce initiatives.
    The platform is led by Georgia Southern’s Office of Business Engagement (OBE), which serves as the University’s central point for managing relationships with corporate and industry partners. OBE works in collaboration with the Office of Career & Professional Development (OCPD) and academic units to advance a coordinated approach to partnerships across campus.

    Previously, partnership data was managed across separate systems, limiting visibility into how individual engagements contributed to broader, long-term relationships. Working with Redpath, Georgia Southern implemented Salesforce Education Cloud as a centralized system to manage corporate partners, engagement activity, and strategic opportunities in one shared platform.

    The solution supports a wide range of engagement types, including sponsored research and innovation, continuing and professional education, entrepreneurship, philanthropy, and talent initiatives. Career-related data from Handshake is integrated into Salesforce, allowing hiring activity to be viewed in the context of broader corporate partnerships.

    With Salesforce in place, Georgia Southern now has a single, shared view of corporate and industry partnerships, improved cross-campus coordination, centralized partnership tracking, and real-time reporting to support strategic decision-making. The platform also provides a scalable foundation that can expand to additional departments over time.

    “Georgia Southern has taken a thoughtful, strategic approach to corporate engagement,” said Jayne Corrigan-Monat, Vice President of Operations and GTM at Redpath Consulting Group. “By centering this work within the Office of Business Engagement, the University now has a clear, unified view of industry partnerships that supports both immediate priorities and long-term growth.”

    “This platform strengthens how we manage and grow relationships with our corporate and industry partners,” said Associate Vice President John Stevenson, Georgia Southern University. “By aligning engagement activity across research, education, and workforce initiatives, we are better positioned to create meaningful partnerships that benefit our students, faculty, and regional economy.”

    About Georgia Southern University
    Georgia Southern University serves more than 29,000 students across campuses in Statesboro, Savannah, Hinesville, and Wexford (Ireland), as well as online programs. Founded in 1906, the University is a public Carnegie Doctoral/R2 institution known for hands-on learning, strong employer partnerships, and a commitment to career readiness.

    Through its Office of Career & Professional Development and Office of Business Engagement, Georgia Southern connects students, faculty, and employers to support workforce development and experiential learning.

  • Unlocking Global Opportunities: NVBDC Resource Webinar Featuring the Global Chamber

    TROY, MI, UNITED STATES, January 20, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — The National Veteran Business Development Council (NVBDC) has long been recognized as the gold standard in certifying veteran-owned businesses. But certification is only the beginning. NVBDC’s broader mission is to ensure veteran entrepreneurs have the resources, relationships, and strategic access needed to grow, compete, and thrive—both domestically and on the global stage.

    That mission takes center stage on February 5, when NVBDC hosts its next Services Webinar as part of the ongoing Resource Webinar Series, featuring a globally focused partner with deep international reach: Global Chamber.

    Moving Beyond Certification
    For many veteran-owned businesses, earning certification answers the question of credibility. What comes next is more complex: How do I scale? Where do new markets come from? Who can help me navigate opportunities beyond U.S. borders?

    The NVBDC Resource Webinar Series was designed to meet veteran business owners at this critical inflection point. Rather than sales-driven presentations, these webinars focus on education, access, and practical guidance, connecting veterans directly with organizations that can help them move from certification to execution.

    A Global Perspective with Global Chamber®
    Global Chamber® is a global business platform spanning 605+ chapters across 195 countries, built for growth-oriented organizations, leaders, and future leaders seeking to expand beyond borders with confidence. Its mission is to make cross-regional success more intentional, trusted, simple, and satisfying.

    Global Chamber adds value by creating warm, strategic connections to targeted clients, investors, partners, and resources around the world, reducing friction and uncertainty in international business. Its vision is to make exporting, importing, investing, and doing business across regions as easy as doing business across the street.

    For veteran-owned businesses—many of which already bring operational discipline, leadership under pressure, and mission-driven execution, global expansion can be a natural next step. The challenge is understanding where to begin and how to move forward responsibly. This webinar will demystify that journey by showing how Global Chamber helps businesses move from interest to action through trusted global connections.

    What the February 5 Webinar Will Deliver
    Participants in the February 5 Resource Webinar will gain actionable insight into what global growth really looks like for veteran-owned businesses. Topics will include an overview of Global Chamber’s services and international network, how veteran-owned firms can prepare for global opportunities, and how NVBDC-certified businesses can leverage partnerships beyond the United States.

    Attendees will also hear practical examples of how companies engage with global chambers and trade ecosystems, along with clear next steps for veterans interested in exporting, forming international partnerships, or sourcing globally. Importantly, this session is not a sales pitch—it is a resource-driven conversation built around readiness, access, and long-term opportunity.

    Who Should Attend
    The webinar is designed for a broad cross-section of the NVBDC ecosystem, including:

    NVBDC-certified veteran-owned businesses
    Veteran entrepreneurs exploring growth beyond domestic markets
    Corporate members seeking globally capable veteran suppliers
    Veteran business owners looking to diversify revenue and partnerships
    Whether a business is actively pursuing international expansion or simply wants to understand what global opportunities may exist in the future, this session will provide clarity and direction.

    NVBDC’s Ongoing Commitment
    The Resource Webinar Series reflects NVBDC’s commitment to ensuring veteran-owned businesses are not only recognized but fully supported throughout their growth journey. By partnering with organizations like Global Chamber, NVBDC continues to build pathways from service to sustainable success—locally, nationally, and globally.
